described by Nieuhoff in his ‘ Voyages and Travels in the East’ as 
found in Java. He compares the horns to the tusk of the elephant, 
which they somewhat resemble. Dr. Shaw thought otherwise, and 
formed a genus for Nieuhoff’s animal, making a figure of it from 
his description (see General Zool. 1. 226. t.65). Tlliger considered 
it more probably a Babyrusa. See Illiger, Genera Mam. 100.
